Dimensional Stability of Underwear Affected – Shrinkage Rate of Fabric
Dimensional change belongs to a specific fabric, cut and wash cycle, not to underwear in general. Specify length and width as two separate figures, name the wash and drying procedure from ISO 6330 and the measurement method from ISO 5077, then fix a pass or fail tolerance in the purchase order. Test the production fabric lot before cutting, because an AQL inspection will not catch a garment that shrinks one size.

How to Reduce the Cost of Underwear Products
Cost reduction in underwear runs on four levers rather than one: material procurement, production technology, inventory management and the sales channel. Cutting material alone moves cost onto the parts of the programme that carry risk, which is why the lever order matters more than the size of any single cut.

Dark Shades in Underwear: Pigment Migration and What to Test
Dark shades raise two specification questions rather than a health one: pigment migration, which is about how the dye behaves under moisture and friction, and dyeing safety, which is tested under the same standards as any other colour.
